...Can't really get any better than that, can it?.....grin! No Pat, it doesn't. Did the same with my boys and it was always a good time. Now their in college and have other interests but they still like to have me load up some shells to do a little shooting sometimes. Got a old 700 in 243 that just might become a 260...like I need another rifle.

getting close  everyone got their ammo loaded ? I've got 100 rounds of 7RUM and I'll have about 225 or so 22-250ais for the trip. Hope that'll last me for a little while at least.

All I have is about 300 rounds of 22-250 (with an embarrasingly slow twist) and about 200 rounds of 7-08.
And a box of condoms. Huh?

You guys are killing me, I wont be in Montana till the first week of May.  Meanwhile its 82 degrees and the scenery is incredible on the beach.

You bet. I think I'll load up a few Hornady 225gr BTHP for the 308 too. I'd like to see if they have ANY consistency out at the mile+ target from a 1/12 twist bbl, at 2500 fps. I have shot them to 1200 yards and surpisingly they did pretty good.

I'm anxious to see the .30's shoot as well. Should be a good time all around.

Boiler shutdown, and my hunger for OT will keep me home that weekend. Don't worry Travis, I'll spend some of that money on booze and rubbers 
I'm Irish...
Of course I know how to patch drywall

You'll never have any exciting stories using rubbers.

I'll be thinking about you two cuddling while I'm covered in tree blood and bark slivers.
Travis, we need to drink beer and kill [bleep] one of these weekends.

The new Lawrence Rifle Barrel 260 on a 700 action has yet to be blooded.

Heading out there right now to shoot.......I hope it's like this next weekend. Near perfect conditions this morning. A little frost and hardly a breath of wind.

Gear pics and better memories for those boys. Glad to see you taking time to raise them right. I wish I could make the shoot but it is not looking good for me. Too many other commitments. Keep those boys in ammo and you'll never have problems with them;-).
